Divorce Failed My Wife's Secret Identities Shock the World novel Chapter 15

The bright overhead lights dimmed in an instant.

Someone yelped, "What the hell was that lightning? My laptop's broken!"

"Mine too," another person shouted.

A clerk stood there with an apologetic look, hands half-raised like there was nothing she could do.

"Well... you can see the situation. Our internal network is completely down. If you two still want to file for divorce, you'll have to come back another day."

At this point, Andres knew there was no point arguing. Dragging it out would just waste time.

He flicked Maeve a look. "Let's go."

No divorce, plus they'd lost their marriage certificate. Andres and Maeve walked out of City Hall one after the other.

Maeve asked, "Is there any way to get divorced fast?"

Andres couldn't even name what he was feeling right now. "I'll talk to a lawyer. Then we'll see."

Maeve nodded. "Sorry to put you through it."

Just then, Hans pulled up in a black executive van. "Mr. White, all done? And Miss Vance, where are you headed? Want a ride?"

Maeve took one glance at the van. "I get carsick. Appreciate it."

As she walked away, Hans watched her back, thoughtful. "I feel like Miss Vance has a personal grudge against this vehicle."

Noticing something off in Andres's expression, Hans lowered his voice. "What happened?"

Andres told him about the two lightning strikes. Hans listened, clicking his tongue in disbelief.

"That doesn't sound like coincidence," Hans said. "Sounds like someone did it on purpose."

Andres looked at him, asking without words.

Hans went on, "When the old man was alive, he collected talented people like some folks collect art, every kind of specialist you can imagine. With his connections, he wouldn't owe Miss Vance's adoptive father a favor for no reason. And he definitely wouldn't use your marriage as the price tag."

"Find out," Andres said.
